I don't think pg is given enough credit for his hand in reddit. I wonder how many redditors have heard of him and/or YC.

- jedberg 16y agoIt's funny you mention that. Just yesterday I made a graph of how many accounts were created each day since the beginning of reddit. It's very clear which day Paul mentioned reddit in his essay, because there was a 3x jump in signups that day. More importantly, it never receded from that level. I like to think this is because people kept finding his essays.
- redthrowaway 16y agoMost everyone in the technical subreddits would know about pg and YC. After that, most people who identify strongly with the community would probably know its history.
